I would like to extend the article to talk about the NS INN and who we are and what we do. The NS INN (Soup Kitchen) is run by volunteers and sustains itself purely by contributions. We serve hot lunches 3 days a week, on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday (from 12-1 pm) to approximately 210 guests a week in the basement of the First Baptist Church in Glen Cove (all are welcome)...etc.

Below is a letter sent to all volunteers letting them know about The Benefit Concert... Jean Kelly is the Executive Director of the INN..which is based in Hempstead and of which the NS INN is 1 of 14 soup kitchens through out Long Island. Jean will be at the concert and speaking. Jean grew up in Glen Cove.

Mark Bleeke (a tenor) and his brother Jeffrey (Guitar) come from a family where music formed a part of everyday life. Mark sings a diverse repertoire from Early Music to Baroque, Classical, Pop and Contemporary, and enjoys improvising on the piano, composing and arranging... He is a frequent guest artist in festivals throughout the USA and abroad. (copied form Bach Cantatas Website...)

What a way to spend the first day of spring ...@ the Serve One Another Benefit concert for the INN!

The program features accomplished professional guest artists like our “very own” Friday volunteer, Mark Bleeke, and his brother Jeffrey.... as well as the acclaimed,Glen Cove High School Select Chorale, who ( sang at the White House and recently were invited to sing at the Vatican)! They will be performing an exciting night of folk, classical, new age and classic rock...You will hear some Dylan, Elton John, Springsteen and the Beatles (to name a few).

We are delighted and very fortunate to have Jean Kelly join us and deliver a speech on this special evening of music...I’ll share a little secret with you about the program... Mark has arranged a New Age piece for the opening of the show he is calling “Spiritual Currency” ( a vocal improvisation layered on top of drones, singing bowls, percussion and healing sounds). I can’t wait!

I hope you, your friends, and family will join us for this wonderful evening of musical entertainment. A suggested $10. (tax deductible) ticket can be purchased on your volunteer day. Estelle will be selling tickets. You can also purchase tickets at the door.... But get them while they last...I’m thinking we are going to have a sell out!

The North Shore INN is so grateful for the support given for the Benefit Concert by the (SJC) Social Justice Committee of the UUCSR ,(Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Shelter Rock) which represents just another way in which we,“Serve One Another”. The SJCs’ generosity in helping get the word out, (by printing 200 (+) color flyers) and, providing the opportunity to service and offer tickets in the lobby for the Benefit Concert on Sunday March 8th, and 15th, is truly appreciated. It is yet another demonstration of the way the UUCSR has always been there for the many soup kitchens throughout Long Island which fall under the umbrella of the INN (Interfaith Nutrition Network)... After Hurricane Sandy... the UUCSR provided a large grant to help restock the pantries of the Mary Brennan INN in Hempstead after the demand for food grew and the pantries were running low. At times the offering collected during the services of the UUCSR are targeted for specific needs of The NS INN..like for Turkey’s for our guests at Thanksgiving. Thank you, thank you, thank you...!!! Social Justice Committee of the UUCSR !
